This will probably help you understand what is going on. Basically the same approach as ROCm with the exception that unlike ROCm this may actually work...

[MadeUpName]

Does needing HIP if youare on AMD mean that you need ROCm there for a 6000 card?

BTW big thumbs up for the Blender crew. They have made ...

[MadeUpName]

Yup but that is also an issue. It usually just works so people don't really dig into it all that often. But then when some thing goes sideways they have...

I like Gimp so I don't want to bang on them to hard. But it looks like the stuff beyond 3.2 is going to be finished before 3.0....

[MadeUpName]

Kodi has HDR support. Wayland is the big bottle neck right now. As RH was the ones really pushing Wayland it makes sense that they step up. But I also...

[MadeUpName]

Ya except the fact that BMD has a RH7 image that is their blessed standard. Not a windows image or a Mac Image. The only issue with installing Resolve...

[MadeUpName]

The Wiz started on Apple but only lasted a brief period of time. Davinci ran on custom hardware. Resolve started on Linux and only later was ported to...

[MadeUpName]

My guess is it will be like NVidia and Nouveau or AMD with AMDGPU. They both do most of what your average consumer needs. But if you want to do work...

[MadeUpName]

Is it all going to be open source? Becuase my understanding is that you are going to have to get the drivers from Intel if you want every thing to work....

[MadeUpName]

Sure but then they wouldn't have working pro drivers. What you should have said is AMD needs to join the 21st century....

[MadeUpName]

Are you referring mostly to Vulkan here? I know one of the big things that is different is openCL with image support which exists in the pro drivers...

[MadeUpName]

It's RDNA2 so yes....

[MadeUpName]

Finally some thing that gives me some useful info about my GPU. Loaded a 4K AV1 from YT and the fan barely spins. Hopefully this becomes available for...

[MadeUpName]

What is a use case where Power still makes sense? In their day they they used to make a processor that x86_64 just couldn't touch for raw muscle. But...

[MadeUpName]

Release date Q3 2016. No AVX.

processor : 3
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 6
model :...

[MadeUpName]

Low end CPUs won't have extensions like AVX2....

[MadeUpName]

Is that installing ROCm? Are you installing it/upgrading it it along side the distro's amdgpu? If so that doesn't make sense as my understanding is...

[MadeUpName]

What a self entitled little sh1t. Considering your deep concern what have you contributed to help mitigate the issue? If there had been a great ground...

[MadeUpName]

Don't know how true it is but YT guy is saying AMD is releasing mining cards.
